good episode. I guess I should stop reading the manga so it won't spoil the anime for me :P

In my case, I'm probably going to keep reading the manga. Sure there's potential to be spoiled, but it's something that I accept when I want to both read the manga and watch the show. After all, no matter which version I experience first, the other one will be spoiled. So I may as well go with the flow.

There's also probably the fact I have a strange liking for 4-Koma manga. Especially ones involving cute girls such as K-ON! Which makes it hard for me to resist the idea of reading the manga.

I want to adopt Yui & Ui. Their parents left them alone and ran to Germany? I think if this was the USA, Child Protective Services would have something to say about that. But their scenes reminded me of the last Minami-Ke. Very sweet. Especially after just finishing School Days.

This was a sweet ep. the relationship of Yui and Ui runs deep. also, Sawa-chan.. wtf. haha. and Mio, so much Moe-ness this ep too. i really want to know the back story of Mugi now. hopefully they'll devote an ep to that.

Well, that was a pretty light episode all in all and while it had its moments, it doesn't really seem to do anything to engage the viewer beyond just purely showing them what's going on. I can deal with that once in awhile, but normally, my preference is for a show to get me involved by seriously thinking about what's happening on screen. Hidamari Sketch did a pretty good job of that with its pacing, and that's probably what I'm missing the most of from this series.

Well, a new member or two might draw some of the heat away from Mio, make the newbie the target sort of thing.

Spoiler for spoiler:

Unfortunately the new member isn't like Mio, who gets edgy at all the flak thrown at her.

Most of all, you have to be disciplined and you have to save, even if you hate our current financial system. Because if you don't save, then you're guaranteed to end up with nothing.

Happy cute little show and so much critique aimed at it. I think people should just stop watching this if they feel that negative about it. Especially with the latest episode. That was just so cute and fun. Not for you? Then don't watch. And stop questioning manhood and your purpose on Earth like Omni.

Just watched it again and there's still so much space for everyone else to grow and develop. The scenes showcasing Yui and Ui's relationship was definitely a step in the right direction and was a joy to watch. I guess all those scenes with Sawa-chan is still excusable because it's not like she's on screen all the time. I still find it sad and wasteful that we still don't get to focus as much on everyone else sans Mio. I mean, like I said, one girl does not a band make.

Still, while it seems Yui and the new girl will become the spotlight for the next coming episodes, that still leaves out poor Ritsu and Mugi.

The New Year scene in the manga was much funnier. It seemed as if the anime added it in just for the purpose of drawing Mio in a Kimono. Which is WIN as always; I died of moe even though I'm not a Mio fan. Sawa-chan also seems a little out of character (from the manga that is), hope it gets better next episode.

Overall, average episode peppered with moments of WIN. I guess Kyoani has developed some sort of niche for this kind of anime. In response to annoyance about the seemingly recurring plot devices (next episode's maid-cafe in particular), Kyoani can't change the plot lines from the original 4koma so blame the repetition on the manga. Though it is Kyoani's job to depict it so that it doesn't feel recurring.

Personally, I also don't see what's wrong with the lolis' feet. Aren't they supposed to look small and weak in the anime world? I find them cute; it's like they could topple and fall anytime.
